Readers corner: pets

Driving the 18 hours from California to Fort Collins with a cat is no easy task, especially when aforementioned cat tries to escape at every gas station. I finally relented and decided to put her harness on along with the leash I got her. Earlier attempts at walking the cat ended in the cat laying on the sidewalk for an hour. But when we stopped in Utah, as soon as I got the harness and leash on her, she darted out of the car and into the noisy gas station. Since I've gotten settled into my apartment, she now goes on walks in the grassy area behind my building. The harness no longer bothers her and she willingly walks on her leash in the great outdoors. I can't wait to see how she reacts to snow in the winter
